Introduction

Jennie Wassenaar
Hello, my name is Jennie. I recently joined the eSens group and have received some e-mails and posted some questions. I am now following the suggestion to send out an e-mail of introduction.

I am 49 years old and have been struggling with Multiple Chemical Sensitivity (MCS) and Electromagnetic Sensitivity (EMS) for about 5 years. Looking back I can see through my life that I have always been sensitive to some degree. Many things that I have never cared to do, now I can not do - it's as if my body instinctively recognized things that were harmful to me.

For the first 20 months of my symptoms I went to every medical specialist imaginable. No one could help me or had any idea what my underlying problem was. All I heard was "we don't know, but take this pill". Here is some irony - thank goodness for the internet! With some investigation and close observation of my symptoms I was able to diagnose myself with MCS, EMS, Allergies and Food Sensitivities.

I have actively done as much as I can to limit my exposure to the substances that harm me. I have come to the conclusion that I will never be "healed" unless I move to the outskirts of civilization and that would probably only be temporary. With all the chemicals, electronics and wireless our society uses it is just to pervasive and invasive to avoid. I don't say this to be negative or depressing but understanding this is going to be a life long process of trying to eliminate and maintain helps me to keep things in prospective.

I also believe that MCS, EMS, Allergies and Food Sensitivities are going to be on the rise and explode in the general public! God made us with incredible bodies but we (as a society) have abused them. I believe our bodies are so amazing that when we start treating them well they have a great capacity to heal. Anyway as I stated I started with my problems in my mid 40s. I have 3 grown children who developed allergies in their late teens/early 20s and are now starting to show signs or MCS. I have 2 grandsons who have developed allergies as pre-schoolers. There seem to be a pattern, at least in my family. My husband is the only one in the family who has maintained good health - and he's thin to boot!

I would rate myself as highly sensitive to both MCS & EMS. I would also say that I have a good handle on MCS & EMS as a whole. Time will tell, after interacting with the eSens group I may find out I know very little.

I did make this request on a previous e-mail. Six weeks ago a new cell tower was placed 1/2 mile away from our home (much bigger than the one that was previously there). I have not had a good night sleep since. Many nights sleeping only 2-3 hours starting at about 7:00am. If anyone has any suggestions that could help me, I would appreciate it. Also, since this time I have not been able to stop eating or could that just be a Freudian thing?! :)

Marc, thank you for creating this forum.

Best to you all,

jw

Hi from Paul Uk
check your house with a good meter and try to set up deflective sheilds
especially on windows less emf has a range of good sheilding materials.

Hello Jennie

I produce a magazine called Rewire.me

You can download an electronic copy here

http://www.rewire.me

It's made for people that are EHS and want to inform others that are
becoming EHS by passing on the free magazine.
I have been ehs for 15 years and I have been to hell and back. As a TV
producer I had a betacam camera to my head for 20 years and the
magnets that imprint the signals onto the video tape had allowed the
mercury from my fillings to pass the blood brain barrier. - then I got
my fillings taken out the wrong way and I could not work for 2 years.

For my recovery - I did landscaping of my house. I dug ponds and that
seemed to help a great deal. At that time I did not know what was
wrong with me - the doctor said that I had a nervous breakdown. When
I felt better - I went back to work and got a contract to do a TV
travel show about europe. I was well enough to work but not perfect.
We rented a motor home and traveled europe and stayed at campsites.
After 2 months I was pretty much cured of the problem even though I
was still putting the camera to my head.

When I got back home - to canada - it all came back. So I had to stop
traveling - and figure out what the problem was. By trial and error -
and eliminating the wireless dect phones, WIFI - portable computers -
rewiring the ground to my house - things got better. But not normal.

Then I put the two and tow together - digging the pond and traveling
in the camper van. Being close to the earth. For me being grounded
seems to work. taking off my shoes and standing in the forest, laying
on a granite rock - and burried in sand.

I went to Israel to the Dead sea and they have plenty of healing spas
where you plug yourself into the mud and float in the highly
conductive salt water and then lay in the sand. You soak up the earth
frequency.
In Virginia Beach - there is a University called ARE that is devoted
to healing the Mind and body and it was located there because of the
sand on the beach. Many of the remedies are massage - and then salt
water and then burried in the sand. It worked for me.

In sedona arizona - the native indians went there because they could
feel the healing powers of the desert oasis. The indians stood
barefoot on the ground on the vortexes that are said to rise out if
the ground because of the iron in the red rocks. It made me feel much
better. James Redfield wrote the Celestine Prophesy there.

I went to Australia to study the natives at ayers rock. They still do
not wear shoes.
I went to Peru to the amazon and the many natives still walk on the
ground without shoes.

The easiest way to test this process for yourself is to go camping in
a tent. lay close to the ground. Choose a site far away from any
electrical wires and cell towers. Then when you sleep - your body will
rebuild the cells that are damaged through the week. You need to be
away from the fields of radiation to heal. the longer the better. Try
doing this on weekends at first. Everyday go into a forest barefoot
for one hour. Before you go to sleep go into your backyard barefoot
for one hour to ground yourself. Spend as much time as to can
gardening - touching the soil - connecting to the earth.

That is what has helped me. Lessons learned from the natives that
understand the healing energy of the earth. We have all just got
disconnected from it. Time to reconnect.

Actually, I've had this problem at work -- I'm sure there is some sort
of compensation mechanism for eating making one feel better when
overexposed to EMF. Since my EMF symptoms seem to be the same as if I
were mobilizing toxins, eating may simply stop that, as the body doesn't
mobilize as many toxins if it is busy digesting food.

Interestingly however, if I'm recovering from a cold or a flu, my
constant appetite goes away, even when overexposed to EMF.

Also, although I'm primarily a vegetarian, I've found that eating meat
will effectively kill my appetite for quite a while.

Also, antioxidant supplements might help. I think foods high in
Vitamin A are good for me, and I've got some "super antioxidants" that
are good for ES symptoms (H-Minus from e3Live and Amrit Ambrosia tablets
from MAPI).

And if you can find a good "toxin binder" that works for you
(activated charcoal? bentonite? liquid zeolite?), that might help
as well.

And of course, there are EMF protection devices, which have the
potential to make you feel like you are not being assaulted by so many
frequencies, and possibly eliminate the need to move to the outskirts of
civilization. But these are so hit and miss with people.

paul uk - since it is likely that your cellular mechanism are being
disrupted it might be the bodies way of saying hey the fire is going out lets get
some more fule in quick- however it might be a double whammy as you may
then be fueling the poor metabolic shambles that is being induced by the emf,
reduced calories might be more sensible,

hi jennie,
 
i can relate--been mcs forever and fully es for going on 4 years now (and partially es forever).  B12 has helped w my sleeping.  i was a "vibrator" and B12 totally cured that for me too.  i take a good quality sublingual B12--1000 mcg.  otherwise you need intrinsic factor to assimmilate B12.  magnesium also helped.  they both help best taking before bed.
 
no, your overeating is not Freudian--it is anxiety caused by emfs.  when i am in hi emfs i want to eat non-stop.  i can't say it will help you, but i have been recently helped by using the Quantum Pro device--i was remodeling a house i could not sleep in until i bought this device.  i sleep better in this house now than in my old home.  the Pro is expensive ($500),but what is sleep worth?  i can send the site for this if you need it--it was suggested to me by Marc, the moderator of this forum.

ok! evie overkill is done now--sorry for answering almost every post!  lol  can you tell i have not been getting out much?  ;)

Well, maybe not everyone needs the expensive "Pro" model. My
sleep is vastly improved just with their $30 3-outlet power
conditioner!
